Ooooo now THIS is interesting.
Deku got taken to Toga because she doesn’t want to hurt him (at least not yet) but wants to ask him some questions. Which has resulted in him and Ochako actually facing her together. A necessary thing considering she’s gonna bust out the Clones soon.
Also an important thing to note: there are high ends at ALL of these fights. However, Deku managed to get the fight that has two of them. Unlucky or lucky? We’ll see how they’re handled as time goes on.
So let’s go over the other fights shall we?
First: AFO and crew vs Endeavor/Hawks and crew (+Tokoyami)
Location: Gunga Mountain
This fight is incredibly even all things considered. Endeavor is one of the few who can probably go toe to toe with AFO, and Hawks is still the fastest hero around, as shown with him managing to slash AFO’s new helmet. However, he’s also really weak since it didn’t even scratch it.
This seems to be a battle that’s going to have a lot of AFO talking with the big armies fighting in the back. Perhaps he’ll try to intervene with other fights? Or does he have tricks up his sleeve that could beat Endeavor? Only time will tell with this one.
Tokoyami is also a very interesting person to be there, I wonder what his role will be? Will he see his teacher Hawks fall or save him again? Or be the one needing saving? Very very interesting fight here. It seems to be the definitive “Pro Heroes vs Villains” fight.
Next: Dabi vs Shoto and Ingenium
Location: Kamino
Ah yes, the brotherly conflict continues. This time we’ll see if it can actually end. And the fight taking place in front of the All Might statue/Kamino? With the statue being re-graffiti’d? A big open space in the middle of the city for people to cut loose. I dare say we’re going to be seeing some high temperature back and forth in this one.
Iida seems to be squaring off with a high end, so if he starts hurting it, good lord. Perhaps this is where the bulk of the UA students went? This fight seems pretty unbalanced unless someone like Mirko is also here. Gonna be a VERY hard fought win, if not a loss if the heroes aren’t careful.
Third: Shigaraki vs Best Jeanist and Dynamight
Location: U.A.
Oh god no
This is… dangerous.
Deku was supposed to be here. He was supposed to help fight Tomura. And now he’s not. It’s just Bakugo, Jeanist and whoever else that’s there. This could be an absolutely catastrophic L for the heroes, especially if a High End is there. No joke, this could be the worst matchup yet.
Unless, however, Bakugo has the determination and power to actually stand up to Shiggy. If Cluster is truly strong enough to damage Shigaraki, there’s hope that the heroes can hold out long enough for Deku to get back there and fight Tomura. Because realistically, unless someone really really strong is over there to make up for Deku, it’s just going to be a race for time so Deku can get back.
Lets see if the heroes can stall the Symbol of Fear.
Lastly, Toga vs Deku and Uravity
Location: Unknown but with water
The conclusion of an arc ladies and gentlemen. Toga is finally going to ask Deku her question, and get his answer to Twice and saving people. Tsu and Gang Orca are also there, but let’s be real and recognize the actual main attraction.
Deku and Ochako are going to have their work cut out for this one. Toga with Twices blood is definitely going to turn this fight into a struggle that no one could have predicted from the heroes, and on top of that, we’ve got TWO high ends here, because the extra one of the five left had to get shoved off somewhere. Thank goodness Deku is here honestly because IDK how they would’ve handled two high ends + Toga and her clones with the team so far presented.
This is going to be a passionate climax for the ages, but hopefully Deku can get out fast enough to go to U.A. and help them stop Shigaraki. I also feel Ochako is going to be showing out more as a battler here than ever before. This could easily be the most interesting fight until Deku vs Shigaraki.

And there we have it. The lines are set, ambushes have gone off and counters have already begun. Now we must sit back and watch as the final clash of ideals between Heroes and Villains takes off.
But how many of them are going to make it in one piece I wonder?
